Lifecycle spring summer 2020

Larisa too, lives in an area with easy access to the
mountainous Transylvania, with epic roads and
trails everywhere. Yes, both of us seem to have an
affinity with mountains, meaning that these are
the areas that we seek out on our rides.
And yet, here in the UK it’s more and more
difficult to find the isolated wow factor that first
drew my attention as a youngster. Everywhere
seems filled with mini pelotons, and overseas in
Majorca, its now nothing more than a cyclists
motorway, overflowing with dreamers.
One of the great things about high places is
always the ability to escape; not to simply
transplant yourself into a sunny and less crowded
place, but to immerse yourself in the wild scenery.
It’s not about being unsociable, it’s just that
mountains draw the human soul and allow us to
find isolated recuperation.
